(EXCLUSIVE) Interview with Charli Brown

-What and who has inspired you the most in your artistic career?

Everyday life is an inspiration. I love to “people watch” and imagine what is going on in their life.
A majority of my inspiration has come from David Bowie, J.R.R. Tolkien and Stephen King. I love how David Bowie would bring a concept to life, Tolkien’s creation of a world and Stephen King’s ability to find the horror and terror.

-Every true artist is also a revolutionary against power. Do you think there is still room today to express one’s revolution through art?

I think it is a necessity for artists to express their revolution. There are people who will understand and align to take action in the revolution. Expression through art, actions and words will create the connections that we need to bring about change.

-We live in a world where, unfortunately, war still exists. Do you believe that if there were more dissemination of art through the media and social networks, the world would be a more peaceful place?

I believe that the media needs to become more of a social platform that allows people to comment and interact. The world would be a more peaceful place if the “it’s over there, not here” mentality would end.

-Are you working on a new project? If so, can you give us a sneak peek?

I have written a project about the early days of the Pandemic shutdown. The short film should be ready before December 2024.
